Exactly same error here! Although I could make the apt-get update complete, I have the same error with usbarbitrator. So there are many broken packages, some removed and waiting to install I tried apt-get -f install, searched vmware in aptitude in order to delete it (no luck this time)... Any clues?...

Thanks for the quick answers. I've found that launching xfce from gdm instead of slim solves almost all my troubles: I've got automount again and the logout screen buttons for halt and reboot are now enabled... Maybe slim is not rightly configured or it handles the xsession user permissions in a str...

I'd like to know if someone has migrated from gnome to xfce without reinstalling everything. I'm trying to do that* but I'm facing some problems, like: 1.- No automount of usb 2.- No reboot or halt buttons available in xfce 3.- Strange behaviour of the xterminal window: after launch it resizes itsel...

If there is someone in my situation, there's no need to fix update-initramfs to compile the new module. Although it will fail if it's done from synaptic.

After changing to the nouveau driver I have gui, but not fully functional. Some applications crashes, some have lost configuration... When is planned to get all the stuff ok again? I know is a debian task, but i get lost searching for that info... and I know there are lots of smart guys in this foru...

Today I reboot the system and found that one of the lasts updates has broken my nvidia driver... After installing lynx and read many posts on this thread... what about changing "nvidia" for "nouveau" in xorg.conf? It works for me... after reboot you only have to configurate the resolution of yours s...

not sure what to do Well, that is easy, if you want to keep vlc don't install libva1 - this is what aptitude did for me and I am quite happy with that, the conflict will get fixed via another update soon enough. Of course if you don't want vlc then install libva1 which will remove it (for now). Per...
